His Picket Teeth, These Left Their Mark but Never Did Explain the Joke That So Amused Him

United won. I didn't go. I've been to one game this year. I can't imagine going again. I'm glad United is having a wildly successful year so that I know it's not suckful soccer that's killed United for me. That was the main reason I bought season tickets this year, so suckful was the soccer last year I couldn't be sure my damnlessness wasn't tainted by the suck. I had a pang of failure last night when someone tweeted that United had scored. It quickly passed. I'll not buy season tickets next year. Beyond all the nitpicky complaints I have against DC United the business - and FUCK YOU UNITED FOR CHANGING THE GAME TIME TO 7:00 FROM 7:30!, I want that half hour before the game, it's useless to me after - here is the sentence that needs typing so I don't need to keep thinking about typing it: I don't want to dress in uniform and stand and chant and scream for mercenaries as ludicrous mimicry and reinforcement of tribal patriotic loyalty any more. Evoking two mainstay gags: (1) No one asks me how I separate my soccer and politics anymore, and (2) fine metaphors abound.

Disgrace: What of the broader ‘international community’, in other words the United
States/EU/Nato? They have backed Israel. As for the ideologues of the
human rights industry, Samantha Power, the queen of ‘humanitarian
interventions’, is the US rep on the Security Council and staunchly
pro-Israel. Both the House and the Senate have unanimously written
Israel a blank cheque; the French Socialist government banned
demonstrations against the Gaza horrors in Paris on the grounds that
they would encourage anti-semitism (not well received by French Jewish
organisations who co-sponsored the march); the British Foreign Office is
compliant as usual; the Germans too busy imposing sanctions against
Russia while turning a blind eye to Gaza and refusing to accept that the
Palestinians are the indirect victims of the judeocide the Third Reich
unleashed during the Second World War and for which successive
democratic governments in Germany have been paying ever since. The US
satellite states in Eastern Europe have followed suit.

Nyah, nyah, Hamster, you missed me. The correct answer was "Rolling the Ball." No amplified and affected outrage for you, dearie.

Proprietor: I cannot for the life of me remember the name of that card-sharp guy's sister. Amy? Ruth? Bathsheba? Miriam?

Alsotoo: agreed entirely on United, which did not make watching them pwn3ng Cancer Boy, The Foe, and all those other annoying high-profile Toronto twits any less fun. Also fun was CSN dedicating two thirds of its Capitals broadcast team to a United game. It involves putting things into a goal? Sure, Beninati can do it. Awesome sauce.

Amy was the kid sister, Leigh was the sister a year younger who once told me she would fuck me if I wasn't so stupid as to be friends with her brother. Lordy, she was cute. By the time I *did* hate her brother it was too late, she'd hooked up with someone else.
